Re: Caramel Taste to beer
Thanks both Initial mistake in the original post, it was a coopers european lager kit that has had the DME and not the Bulldog. Temperature wise I just followed the instructions, is there an ideal temperature and schedule for brewing kit lagers? After fermentation I have reduced them temp to cold ch...

Caramel Taste to beer
Hi All Seem to be having an issue on the last few kit brews and now getting a caramel taste to the beer. I've recently brewed a Mexican Cerveza expecting a light straw coloured beer. I got something that was slightly darker with a caramel taste. Bulldog Mexican Cerveza 1kg extra light DME 20lts untr...

Re: Amazon deal on "Clone Brews"
Thanks All
Just getting back int this after a while away. Yep, i can see the brown box at the bottom, its just a bit confusing but worth it when i have it sorted out.
Any thoughts on the ingredients or indeed a UK substitute available in the UK?

Re: Amazon deal on "Clone Brews"
Tempted to get this as i'm starting out with mini mashes. Flicking through the first recipe (33 Export) it gives the details for mini mash. Screenshot 2018-12-02 at 08.56.58.png Screenshot 2018-12-02 at 08.56.58.png So a bit confused here, do i subtract 0.9kgs of DME from the recipes 2.3kgs DME and ...

Re: Force Carbination
So, i think i may have gone from one extreme to another here. Before embarking on a 10 day holiday, the day before i kegged up some lager connected the CO2 at 35psi and left it. Come back from holiday and now just getting foam (yes it was sitting for 10 days at 35 psi). I have released all the CO2 a...

Re: Force Carbination
Further update. Had it sitting at 5 degrees that last couple of days and at 30 psi. Tested today and indeed have gone from flat to carbonated. Lesson learnt to leave it for a couple of days! So, final question, now it's carbonated, do i pull the PRV and now adjust it to serving pressure? Regarding s...

Re: Force Carbination
Thanks All The advice here is great and certainly getting the response to leave it alone. I will drop the temp of the fridge slightly to get it down to around 5 degrees. Do i leave the gas on at 30psi for the full week or do i need to drop the psi after a few days down to serving pressure? One more ...

Re: Force Carbination
An update....... got in tonight and tested the beer, it is more carbonated than before, though not as i would like. I'm trying to carbonate a lager with a similar fizz to that you get in a pub. Interestingly, i had it sitting in the fridge at 10 degrees and around 28psi with a corny keg connected. I...

There is a limited range of the mini mash kits from Rob, however if i wanted to expand am i just looking at amending AG recipes ...
